Scottish Ecological Design Association

 

About SEDA

The Scottish Ecological Design Association (SEDA) was set up in 1991 'to promote the design of communities, environments, projects, systems, services, materials and products which enhance the quality of life of, and are not harmful to, living species and planetary ecology'.

We see ecological design as a discipline which is still in its infancy. We believe that a mature respect for Nature should become an intrinsic part of the choices we make, and can enhance good design, and need not preclude the use of sophisticated technology.

Members include academics, architects, artists, builders, planners, students, ecologists, landscape designers, materials suppliers, woodworkers, and many more whose work or interest is concerned with design for a sustainable future. It welcomes new members, and is open to everyone.

One of SEDA's primary aims is to help people share knowledge, skills and experience. It does this through a Magazine which is published 3 times a year, e-mail bulletins, and a lively programme of events and site visits. It also runs student competitions, commissions research projects, informs the public about ecological design, and responds to government initiatives.

SEDA is a charity and is run by a voluntary Steering Group which meets once a month for dicsussion and planning the activities of the Association: all members are welcome to take part in these meetings. It has a part-time Development Officer, funded by the Esmee Fairbairn Foundation.
